5:00 pm - 6:15 pm

Tuesday, March 21st @5pm Little Bits

Why make bubbles just from a small plastic hoop when you can create a bubble-blowing robot bud? Can you make a pinball game from cardboard and some gear?  Can you use the same pieces and create a catapult? With other circuits, you can create an electric Crawly Creature. You can also create an owl night light. These are just a sample of what you can do with little Bits. There are too many projects to list here. With little Bits, you’ll develop important STEM skills while having fun. Snap together the easy-to-use building blocks and start inventing. There’s never been an easy and accessible way to learn electronics and engineering — until now. Ages 8+ Visit our webpage to sign up for this program under events. Space is limited. Any child under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
